    Big news on page 1000.

    FACT

    Is the 1000th post gonna be televised? Maybe posted from the museum? Will the Aussies due diligence documents be placed in a cabinet there - on parchment paper?
    It's not the 1000th post. It will be the 30,000th post. Although it won't quite even be that. We will actually be 29 short when we start page 1000. The 30,000th post will be the last one on page 1000. So whoever gets that one is the winner.

    There was and old fool from near Ghent, he really makes you vent. He is hated so much and so out of touch, he needs a kick in the crotch....
  • Nothing to add to the general discussion but as I'm probably one of the few who haven''t posted on this thread yet, I wanted to get in before the 1000 page milestone

    When this thread does get to 1000 could admin close this thread and put us all out of our misery?

    It's a shame really that as the thread approaches it's big number all of the posts will just be inane drivel like this one, as opposed to the portentous drivel of earlier times.

    Speak for yourself, one of my representatives (who doesn’t lie much) has this morning spoken with one of Yvette Fieldings representatives and it’s been confirmed that she’s of the understanding that she will hear some news today

    How till this be remembered in the Museum @Henry Irving ?

    You could wallpaper the the entire museum with all the comments
  • The next page is going to just be everyone writing '1000' isn't it, as they try to be the first comment on the 1000th page.

    My question about the leasing the training ground rumour is who is going to invest the required £8m to £10m to bring it up to standard?

    A tennant who doesn't own it?

    A landlord who doesn't use it and who pulled the plug on it years ago?

    The Valley would need maintenance but not to the same extent as Sparrows Lane, which needs major construction.

    The other big concern is if RD finds himself making a profit from leasing The Valley and Sparrows Lane unless whoever buys us has some kind of guaranteed right to buy, why would RD even sell both if making money out of them?

    As I said above. It's not the first comment on page 1000 you want. It's the last. That is comment 30,000 and the one that will be remembered for all eternity.

    Stop posting relevant posts that belong on this thread...you're only supposed to post unrelated drivel until page 1000!

    It would be so funny if we got to the mythical 1000 pages, the site crashed and the takeover was announced. What would we all do?

    Might try and go for the first and last. An unprecedented double.

    Right, it's my birthday today, so let's;
    1) Have a beer or two.
    2) Get this takeover done.
    3) Reach 1,000 pages without breaking CL.

    (Not necessarily in that order!)

    Have a good day guys.

    So is today the day we hit both the magic 1000 and have the takeover announced?

    Sad thing is I'm more excited over hitting 1000 now....
